    No, the LIBERAL DEMOCRATS in congress think that.

      You're probably getting confused about the whole "work" thing, where people actually provide a compensated service.

      I'm sure you're much more aware of the welfare thing, where foot stomping whiners stand around with their hands out demanding other peoples monies.
      Considering you made a big public display about no longer posting due to personal attacks, you sure like to dish it out. Hypocrite. At least make them funny rather than pissy.

      Of course, Haliburton being one of the largest companies involved with oil production and infrastructure, having ANYTHING to do with iraq and the reconstruction of their oil fields that were neglected for 40 some odd years, drives you libs up the wall. God forbid an AMERICAN company that is the WORLD LEADER in the field, is picked to rebuild the oil industry.

      I mean what the devil were we thinking? It should have gone to France right?
      No, it should have gone out to public bid like all government contracts are required to. This fosters competition, which is good for the economy, which is good for ultraconservative tightwads.

        "But he hasn't went to the same lengths that other companies (Smart Parts) has, to get his piece of the pie. SP is greedier than he is."

        You have tried to draw a conclusion where none exists. The desire to horde is ingrained in each one of us. The people at smart parts feel that they have some sort of right to proceedes from electro-pnuematic development. In their mind, all they want is what they feel is theirs. Much the same way I feel, and the way Tom Kaye feels, and the way everyone else on this planet feels. People want to keep and add to what is theirs, they don't want to keep and add to the public fund. That is the very nature of greed.

        And to whomever the mental midget with the wallstreet comment was: 80's, not 90's. For future reference: think, then type.

          If you had bothered to read that thread you would have noticed I was taking time off because "I" was getting nasty.


          As for making it funny, I find very little humor in the left anymore.

          They do nothing more than cry, whine and throw temper tantrums whenever they don't get their way.

          I can't wait to see the pissing fest they chuck come November.

            In that case I apologize, but maybe you needed a longer break.

            Hopefully they won't have a reason to have a pissingfest.

                You will notice Tom never felt the need to patent his compressed air, or power feed, etc... He did, in fact, want to "help the public fund" by allowing others to use his inventions to further the sport.

                But anyway...

                  sorry but as sam would say i'll have to raise the BS flag on this. you clearly stated that YOU were the victim of nastiness, which made me wonder, considering it was you who was always getting personal.

                    eh wrong again kid, I did NOT say I was taking a break because anyone else was being nasty.

                    Why would I care if someone else decided to get nasty?

                    Keep trying, you'll manufacture something I'm sure.

                      edit-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lucky for me, i found an exact quote from your goodbye thread: "i am tired of receiving personal attacks when posting arguments on this board."

                        Wow another thread lost to, no not politics or facts or evidence...but name calling and nitpicking.

                        If you all just posted "." to raise your post count...it would be much more productive.

                        How original.

                          surprisingly enough, rooster was not the instigator this time and i am seriously and sincerely impressed by that. rooster kept things civil, but this time facts came back and stirred things up. the only reason i stepped in was because he began insulting people he disagreed with.

                          so how about we forget the last 15 or so posts which revolved around facts insulting people, and get back to the topic??????????????? or just let the thread die, that's cool too.

                            Too much flamming. I try and let this go sometimes but it always ends up this way.
